Long ago realization: All that is necessary for us to live free in our own head (meaning, nonresistant) is for us to realize that we will never agree one hundred percent with everybody, but we must come to agreement with the person we are in disagreement with right this very minute.
The hidden pearl: We must come to agreement. There it is, the key that opens our closed mind. We err when we listen to our ego and speak agreement before its time...peace on our lips, resistance on our mind.
Offering peace just to get ugly behind us...or with a holy heart led by a self-determined will...simply keeps us stuck in the egoic mind. There is no God there...surface peace may appear but it cannot last for it is self-bred, self-fed, self-led.
Only by the grace of God can true agreement between disagreeing parties be achieved. Our ongoing mistake is trying to get God's help...we strain for the right words to pray, the most spiritual thoughts to think. That's a useless struggle...think of it as trying to build the Brooklyn Bridge. That's done. It is there. Use it already.
Same goes with God. His hand has already transformed the disagreeing hearts...there is no disagreement. The minute our thoughts turn to God, we are righted...as are everything and everybody else.
Hey! We have ceased fighting because there is nothing to fight. We don't even have to sweat how to do that...like the Brooklyn Bridge, it is done.
I will go before you and make the crooked places straight. -- Isaiah 45:2
Thank you.
